Peace through superior firepower.

There are no class II's. There were originally 300+ potential candidates but then they cut it down to 150 because of budget by using a coin flip. If you guess right, you're in. You could be any number, the numbers were the original numbers, not re-assigned ones.

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

Both. While being a new team of Spartans would be awesome, I still want the game to have some content from the novels.

It's not Hip-Hop, its Electro.... prick.

Blue team. You forgot John!

He meant red team. Blue team went to the orbital station, and then to Halo. Red team went to the surface.

Signatures are for squares.

The class II's don't exist, and there is a TON of evidence to support this.

I like cats

I think it should have a bit of both so you can learn the full story

  • 10.07.2009 5:20 PM PDT

I already bought the book, give me a new story.

If by next-gen you mean crappy, dark and colorless, I agree. It doesnt look next-gen at all.

That's the problem. This really isn't a "new" story since we know about it. Well, we don't know everything that happened in Reach but we have a rough idea.

Yes concerning what happened on the surface during the invasion. Although there could other stories to tell. Let's just hope we don't see a class II for the sake of my sanity. The cannon cluster -blam!- that would ensue would be too much for me to handle. >.<

Team Beta.

Sierra-259 might be in it.

I don't want to be in your group quit spamming me

i bet it'll be from a bunch of different views. I bet you'll even get to play as chief when he has to go get the nav data off that ship. i just really wanna play during the part where the spartans are protecting the battery something that powers the mac guns from like thousands of grunts. they use mines and crap which would be so awesome.

PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME GROUP INVITATIONS

The Halo REACH Script (post thoughts in thread)

Writing Lead of Whisper Studios. Check out Heron!

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

Pretty sure you haven't read the novels. Fred and Joshua were Red Team, not Blue Team.

The 3 as a group operated as Splinter Team Alpha during the battle of Reach. But they were part of Red Team, not Blue (John, Linda, James, in space).

-259 and -320 could be Class Is. I doubt that 150 was the largest number of children surveyed; to filter through trillions of children in UNSC controlled space, the number would surely have been larger than 150, which was to be the final number of candidates (later cut to 75 due to budget restraints).

Bungie has never said anything about a Class II, they are only from ILB, but it's possible that the 5 Spartans who joined Red Team between the end of TFoR (during the debrief for the Spartans' upcoming mission and the arrival of the Covenant in-system) and the beginning of First Strike (during the drop to the surface).

Maybe those 5 are who we are in this game?

The Spartans weren't chosen by a coin flip numb nuts, that only happened once with John. Dr Halsey flipped a coin a he guessed right. It was just a little game not a test for all the Spartans.

On topic, I definitely think that there are no Class II's and as long as Sierra 259 and 320 aren't Class IIs I'm happy. I don't even think they're Spartans at all.

I think it's possible that they're Pelican pilots. Not saying they are, but that it's possible.

O rly?

25 of the Class 1's have been named. All with numbes below 150 with only 7 left + Black Team from Blood Line = 28 + 5 Spartan in Banner = 33 + Spartan from Homecoming = 34 1+ more than got through Augmentation.
I would hate it if they were class twos but they are.
However Sierra does not nessisarily mean SPARTAN it could refer too a pelican dropship designation.

The class II's were cancelled. This was confirmed in Ghosts of Oynx. I have a TON of evidence in my thread, "Proof I know who all the spartans in the banner are" But I don't feel like bringing all that info here, so you can look for yourself.

Oops fail.
Red Team not Blue Team. Right.

Hmmm I think it'd be great to finally see blue team in action. Anyone who has read the novels can sympathize with me on that. But at the same time I think I'd rather see the class IIs just because there's no existing fiction for bungie to be tied down to. They'd have a lot more creative freedom.

I agree with you I would hate to see the Class II's become a reality. Everyone thinks im Pro Class II and Con Red Team. wtf
